宋高僧傳 16.21

16.21

釋丹甫者，不知何許人也。性多警達，言必剛直，講授唯勤，執持雅正。會稽風土，律範淵府也。甫之唱導，從之者若玄金之就礠石焉。本習業於亘文律師法集，文即省躬之游夏也，甫即躬之嗣孫。順正命章，斡通祕賾。越自曇一、玄儼之後，罕能追躡，甫之聲塵邁于前烈。然爾時允文匠手，相部風行，甫介于大律之間，行事之時，草從風偃焉。咸通末出門生智章等傳講，今亦法嗣存焉。或聞著《手記》，尋且未獲，吁！惜哉！

Shi Danfu: it is not known where he was from. By nature he was alert and discerning, his speech was invariably firm and straightforward, he was diligent in teaching, and his observance of the vinaya was refined and upright. The region of Kuaiji was a deep repository of vinaya standards. When Fu delivered guiding recitations, those who followed him were like iron drawn to a lodestone. He originally studied in the Dharma assemblies of Vinaya Master Genwen; Wen was to Shenggong as Yan and Xia were to Confucius, and Fu was thus the intellectual grandson of Gong. Following the orthodox tradition, he initiated lectures and penetrated profound and abstruse doctrines. In Yue, after Tanyi and Xuanyan, few could match their footsteps, yet Fu's reputation and renown surpassed those of his predecessors. At that time, Yunwen was a masterly hand, and the Xiangbu school was widely flourishing; Fu stood between the great vinaya masters, and when he conducted monastic matters, the crowd bowed before him as grass before the wind. At the end of the Xiantong era, disciples such as Zhizhang went forth to lecture and transmit his teachings, and today his Dharma lineage still endures. It is said that he authored Personal Notes, but these have not yet been found. Alas, how regrettable!
